Quote: smoking monkey "I seem to recall arguing with the majority who didn't think TM was even a half decent coach.....he must be truly gratified by the recent upsurge in his popularity. He might also remind us of his belief that he had taken us as far as he could (euphamism for getting out while the going was relatively good) and that this years squad, while smaller than ever, includes half a dozen probably playing at least one season too far.
That's not to say IM is a good/bad coach but that anyone thinking our problems can be attributed purely to him is sadly mistaken.'"
I too thought matterson was under valued, siad two things at the end of last season, people who had a go at matterson would want him back and milward would take us backwards, both turned out to be true.
With amount of fans i have heard saying they are giving up/wont get a season ticket next year, we will have an even smaller squad next year (or go bust).
